the real truth of the fly fishing trip

[tageater]

As its still contraversial i thought i'd hide it, but now i dont care who knows! I'm proud to fish for turtles

What a nice turtle. Looks like a green sea turtle to me.

I believe they are running up-stream to spawn, hard to hook, as they aren't eating. You just upset them into biting.

I've caught those before. Usually I'll be fighting a nice big steelhead and a turtle will come along and grab it. Then the fight's really on!

Way to keep that rod tip up. I can tell you've done that before!

you didnt try to land it did you?

 

[tageater]

Try nothing....i got him half way to the truck. Thats when he realized he'd been caught.

It got real ugly after that, and after discussing it with him, i decided he was right( after about 8 flippers to the jaw), and away he went.

I wish you would have killed that sob they are killing every dam@ Salmon in the river. Any way I am glad you made it out alive.
I give props to the camera man for sticken around. The good ones are sure hard to find. I hope you pay him well!

LAST EDITED ON Nov-04-07 AT 08:49PM (MST)[p]That was the original plan, to kill him, and use him to bait in a few more.
Had he not used such a convincing "words" (his right flipper), we'd probably gotten 3 more that day.

The camera "man" is my sis in law. She aint scared of chit.
